Re: [Zim-wiki] Windows builds
Hi Gregor, You could try my recent attempt to build Zim for Windows [1]. If you do, please let me know if it works as expected or not. Thanks, -Zann P.S. The link [1] will be alive only for 7 days.

Re: [Zim-wiki] How can I check the directory of ZimNotes?
Hi Agustin, On Windows clicking Tools then Open Notebook Folder opens that in the file manager, where the full path can be seen, and the files for the specific pages can be located. This looks like what you are looking for, but I am not sure if it works the same way on other platforms too. Also, if a given page contains a pasted image, one should be able to right-click on the latter and pick Open Folder, which would bring up the file manager showing the directory where the image file resides. Hope this helps, -Zann Wednesday, March 9, 2016, 8:00:16 AM, Agustin Lobo wrote: AL> Discrepancy solved with R AL> But still I would like to know how to check the path of a given AL> zim page or at least the root ZimNotes AL> Thanks AL> On Wed, Mar 9, 2016 at 4:51 PM, Agustin Lobo wrote: >> I'm having a sync problem and would like to verify that I made the correct >> setup of Zim on one of the machines.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Compiling for windows
Hi Stephen, The README-BUILD-win32.txt [1] is pretty good, I was able to produce a Windows installer for 0.65 using this guide, only with few minor (and almost obvious) adjustments. Also, look at [2], the official home of Zim for Windows - I remember getting a few pointers there too. By the way, you should be able to run Zim as any other Python code straight from the source. I might be forgetting things, but I think it worked for me when I tried it - give it a shot. -Z.

Re: [Zim-wiki] New web site for Windows installer; found new energy to work on Windows installer
Hi Brendan, This had been bugging me for years! Internet Explorer clears that folder when set to delete browser history on exit (which happens to be my preference), causing Zim loose some of its settings stored in the state.conf stored at that location. I am very glad you will be looking into this. Thank you, -Z. Tuesday, May 16, 2017, 2:05:44 AM, Brendan Kidwell wrote: BK> I noticed it using that path for indices, too, in Windows 7.

Re: [Zim-wiki] command line parameter --index with MSYS2
Hi Greg, I have been playing with MSYS2 and Zim in the last couple of days too. What is your problem with the --index exactly, do you have an error message? I had a few issues with python3w.exe specifically under Windows 10: everything worked with python.exe but not with the w-variety. I wonder if it had anything to do with https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56974927/, because my error message was Access Denied. When I looked at the size of the python3w.exe it was exactly 0 bytes - no wonder it did not work, but why and how Windows 10 managed to do that is beyond me. I copied the python3w.exe from another Windows 7 box and everything began to work as expected, probably because by that time I already disabled a few things per the stackoverflow link above, or because Windows did not update itself yet ... I am not happy with Windows 10 at all. Here are my command lines: C:\msys64\mingw64\bin\python3w.exe C:\Zim\zim.py --index Notes C:\msys64\mingw64\bin\python3w.exe C:\Zim\zim.py To execute both in one click I would combine them both in a BAT file. -Z.
